Dugin argues that Russia represents the Pauline Katechon, the power that holds back the advent of the Antichrist, an antichrist that aims to annihilate every remnant of humanity to establish the ahrimanic dominion of machines, of technology. It is understandable that the Anglo-Saxon West, the maximum more or less conscious expression of this anti-Christic motive, wants with determination to destroy Russia, Americanize it, colonize it, distort it. The Great Reset aims to leave man isolated, uprooted, soulless, devoid of any ethnic, national, historical, sexual identity: a mere consumer and calculator, a hybrid of machine and animal with nothing more human, good only for consumption and to consume.
According to Dugin what we are witnessing is the last act of a long drama. If according to Francesco Borgonovo , who signs the beautiful introduction of the volume, the proponents of the reset are linked to the degenerate dualist Gnostic tradition, yearning for liberation from the burden of the flesh to arrive at a satanic techno-parody of Paradise, the Russian thinker finds in the Middle Ages the 'origin more philosophically evident of the project. The last organic epoch was in fact the moment of the dispute between the Realists, followers of Thomas Aquinas, and the Nominalists led by William of Occam. If Realism supported the existence of "universals", archetypes, the Nominalists saw in them simple names. In fact, they considered only simple and isolated bodies and individuals to be truly existent, devoid of any collective identity. Defeated in the theological field, the Nominalists however made their way into that of practical thought, characterizing the modern era starting from the Renaissance. It is Nominalism that has generated the historical process that resulted in the Protestant Reformation (destruction of the organic and traditional Church in favor of sects and of the individual relationship with the sacred text), in modern science (atomism and materialism) and in liberal capitalism (private property). The same twentieth-century reactions to liberalism (which Dugin calls "first political theory"), communism and fascism (second and third theories), are in part consequences of the nominalist error, and this partly explains their failure. With the fall of the USSR and the victory of Anglo-Saxon liberalism, every obstacle seemed removed: the end of history had arrived, the moment of Nietzsche's last man. Yet a slice of the world has resisted homologation, has refused the disappearance of every organic community, the cancellation of every tradition, the surrender to the totalitarianism of the market: the orthodox Slavic civilization, the Islamic, the Latin American and a large part of Asian ones. The West itself has seen the emergence of movements of resistance to the plans of the elites in recent years. In the USA, Trump's supporters, although lacking in solid ideological foundations and too seduced by grotesque conspiracy theories ("the infantile disease of anti-globalism", according to Dugin), represent a brute, almost telluric force that instinctively resists "the soothing spells of the upper class globalist". In Western Europe, populist and sovereignist parties and movements often have the opposite problem, they struggle to free themselves from the opposing ideologies of the last century; overcoming the paralyzing limit between right and left, social justice and traditional values, could represent a significant barrier to the Great Reset. although lacking in solid ideological foundations and too seduced by grotesque conspiracy theories ("the infantile disease of anti-globalism", according to Dugin), they represent a brute, almost telluric force that instinctively resists "the reassuring spells of the globalist upper class".
